I am so sorry you have such a difficult outcome to live with. I still have PN after seven years but no pain. My feet just variably feel odd - sometimes just mildly odd, sometimes quite weird. About the only thing I can’t do is run (at least not very safely, lose track of where my feet are). It seems very hard that there is nothing that can be done to alleviate the pain.

Best wishes.
